What are these engine options?

Fore example, the engine options for the Jetta include Gas L2, Gas L3, Gas L5. What the hell is an L2 and L3? I picked L5 since I assume that means 5 cylinder, but now I'm not sure.

MPG: gasoline, diesel, CNG, etc equivalency

I was just thinking (and now my brain hurts). How about a drop-down menu showing MPG in terms of gasoline, diesel, CNG, cheeseburger, etc. The calculation shouldn't be more than caloric conversions between different types of fuels. eg, let's say I get 30 MPG gasoline. How does that translate to diesel? Or what if I use cheeseburgers? How many miles can I get on a cheeseburger? Might be a fun thing to see.
